We are SO very proud at Whitegate Farm to celebrate the success of Team Wales at Senior Inter Regional National Championships this weekend!

Especially proud of Francesca Turner and Albie and Jane Yorke and stallion Hermi who represented - Albie Mr Consistent with 68 in both tests coming 4th, and Herman who got distracted in his first test and who improved his score by 5% on the second day! Brilliant! Both of you can be so so proud!

Our onsite coach Steph Bradley said….
“These riders came for coaching and we soon had team selection as a goal for 2025! I believe in setting goals and working towards them with my coaching clients. It’s more than coaching - it’s goal setting, planning, inspiring and motivating - setting goals and working towards them! No matter what the goal. And what type of horse you have!”

Steph is hosting a 3 day camp for British Dressage Wales at the beginning of July - where riders can pick and mix sessions!
All are welcome!
Come join the fun!! 😀🐎🐴🏕️

So true.
When we (or our horses!) have busy lives, or stresses and worries, or suffer from aches and pains we are not always going to find our best looks the same!

So just do your best, in whatever circumstances you are in.
Just like your horse will.

We are ideally seeking an equestrian professional to rent 3-6 stables we currently have available on a DIY basis.

Whitegate Farm Livery & Training centre (LL12 9RW) is an award winning BHS Highly Commended livery yard, and is located in a quiet area between Chester and Wrexham, with excellent road and hacking networks.

Over the past 8 years the farm has enjoyed substantial investment - 40x60 outdoor arena upgrade, 20x42 indoor arena with training mirrors, and new surfaces, dressage arena, jumps, Monarch horse walker, small all weather winter turnout, wash box with cross ties, guest/staff lounge, secure tack room, storage area, ample parking, security CCTV, and owners live on site.

Please note. If you are seeking year round turnout this is NOT the yard for you. We have divided paddocks to allow your horses freedom, but in the winter these get very wet and muddy!

The atmosphere is one of calmness and tranquility - the perfect environment for slowly and correctly developing horses.

Visiting equestrian coaching professionals from dressage, eventing and show jumping hold clinics here, and we host weekly professional equine care clinics with top experts.

We welcome interested parties to contact us for a look around. References will be required, and the usual contracts will be put in place to protect both parties.

This is a unique and exciting opportunity for the right person to base at North Wales premier equestrian centre!

Please contact Steph Bradley 07921 227241.
